On the Road, Our Way

This is the last episode of Women on the Road, but by no means the end of our community. In fact, we are incredibly excited and honored that Noami Grevemberg and her team at Diversify Vanlife will be helping to evolve the podcast you hear on this channel moving forward, with a total reboot taking place in October under a new name, Nomads at the Intersections. In this finale episode, Noami and Laura talk about what this transition means to them, as well as how we hope to see you take part in where we’re going next.Resources From This Episode:Follow Noami on Instagram: @irietoauroraFollow @diversify.vanlifeLearn about Nomads at the Intersections here: Diversify Vanlife websiteFollow Laura on Instagram: @howsheviewsitSubscribe and listen Sex Outside on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and everywhere podcasts are found!Connect with Sex Outside on Instagram: @sexoutsidepodLearn more about Sex OutsideJoin the On the Road, Our Way Facebook Group!Sponsor Websites & Codes:Betterhelp - get 10% off with promo code ROADOregon State EcampusEnjoy this episode?

For some of us, what got us in the car in the first place are the things we’re running from-- but no matter how many miles we drive, those things end up in the passenger seat, along for the ride with us. Kathy Karlo, a climber, writer, Director of No Man’s Land Film Festival, and host and creator of the For the Love of Climbing podcast, is someone who knows the contents of her passenger seat well-- both literally and figuratively. And she uses the weight of what she carries to build something bigger than herself.Resources From This Episode:Follow Kathy on Instagram: @inheadlightsListen to Kathy's podcast, For the Love of Climbing: Spotify | Apple PodcastsRead Kathy’s article, “Do Not Go Outside to Cry”Follow @diversify.vanlifeWomen On The Road on Instagram: @womenontheroadJoin the On the Road, Our Way Facebook Group!Sponsor Websites & Codes:Betterhelp - get 10% off with promo code ROADOregon State EcampusEnjoy this episode?

This platform as you know it started several years ago in response to the lack of representation of female road travelers in the media we consume. After over 100 written interviews published online, followed by more than 100 episodes of the WOTR podcast and the growth of this tight-knit online community, we know there are still more conversations to be had.But we also feel, more strongly than ever, that in the spirit of what WOTR has aimed to do-- broaden our perception of who is on the road, and elevate those voices and stories-- that our current team at @ravel.media are not the ones who need to be hosting these conversations moving forward. That’s why we’re making some big changes.Thanks to Diversify Vanlife, we are partnering to evolve this platform so that it can further serve the conversations that aren’t being had enough, led by the people we need to hear from most.Starting in October, Diversify Vanlife will replace the WOTR podcast under the name Nomads at the Intersections. This monthly show, hosted by founder Noami Grevemberg and co-host Anaïs Monique, will shift the narrative and navigate the challenges, journeys and inspirations of the modern nomadic movement while diving deep into the stories of underrepresented voices.If you’re already subscribed to WOTR on your favorite podcast app, you’ll automatically start getting Nomads at the Intersections content as the re-launch approaches. We’ll also drop some exciting updates right here as well as via Instagram @diversify.vanlife, so just sit tight, make sure you’re following along, and we’ll keep you updated.WOTR as the show you know it now with host Laura Borichevsky will be on air until Friday, 9/18. You’ll still be able to listen to past episodes after this date on the same podcast feed. We have some special things planned for our final two episodes so we’re hoping you tune in!Thanks to each of you for being here for what this community has grown into, and we’re excited to have you here to see where we can all go together next.Links You Need to Know About:Keep subscribed to this RSS feed-- it’ll be changing to the name “Nomads at the Intersection” between now and OctoberApple PodcastsSpotifyStitcherFollow @diversify.vanlife on Instagram for more re-launch updatesGet to know the Diversify Vanlife team:Noami Grevemberg: @irietoauroraAnaïs Monique: @anaismoniqJayme Serbell: @gnomadhomeStay tuned for another new Ravel Media podcast hosted by current WOTR host Laura Borichevsky, Sex Outside!Subscribe and listen to the trailer on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and everywhere podcasts are found!Connect with us on Instagram: @sexoutsidepodLearn more about Sex OutsideFind Laura Borichevsky online if you want to keep in touch: @howsheviewsitThis episode of On the Road, Our Way is produced and hosted by Laura Borichevsky.

Whether on or off the road, it can be easy to tell yourself you can’t do new things. That you’re too inexperienced. That you don’t have the skills. That you’re not qualified.If that’s been you, then this episode is just what you need to hear. Because Laura Edmondson-- a road traveler, digital creator, educator, podcast host, athlete, and DEI and Sustainability consultant-- has got a lot to say about moving forward in the face of feeling unqualified and showing yourself that it’s possible. Resources From This Episode:Follow Laura on Instagram: @laura.edmondsonListen to Laura’s podcast, Let Us Rest: Spotify | Apple PodcastsVisit Laura’s website: LauraEdmondson.coBrown Girls ClimbFollow @diversify.vanlifeJoin the On the Road, Our Way Facebook Group!Sponsor Websites & Codes:Betterhelp - get 10% off with promo code ROADOregon State EcampusEnjoy this episode?

Nobody ever said living on the road was easy, but it definitely teaches us life lessons. In this episode, van dweller Anna Tedesco shares what she's learned from over two years of solo road travel, how it's helped her navigate the mental and emotional challenges a pandemic can bring about, and the important role cooking good food plays in all of it. Whether you need some accessible outdoor cooking recipes or a solid reflection on the life lessons the road can teach us, this episode is for you.Resources From This Episode:Follow Anna on Instagram: @annatabascoAnna’s cooking Instagram: @vannaspiceJoin the On the Road, Our Way Facebook Group!Tiny Kitchen Camper Gear Anna & Laura Love:Moka pot for coffeeNutribulletHand blender with pull stringMilk frotherSponsor Websites & Codes:Betterhelp - get 10% off with promo code ROADOregon State EcampusEnjoy this episode?

For many reasons, many of us have been traveling less and reading more right now, which is why hearing from mother, outdoor adventurer, Licensed Nursing Assistant, and book reviewer Alessandra Hurt is especially important right now. Because what we can learn from stillness, BIPOC authors, accessible travel, and Alessandra’s insights on motherhood are all lessons we can use to make our world a better place.Resources From This Episode:Follow Alessandra on Instagram: @naturemamareadsJoin the On the Road, Our Way Facebook Group!Alessandra’s Reading List Recommendations:Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall KimmererBlack Faces, White Spaces by Carolyn FinneyHonouring High Places by Junko TabeiReclaiming the Commons by Vandana ShivaIn Open Country by Rahawa Haile (2021)Between Two Kingdoms by Suleika Jaouad (2021)Sponsor Websites & Codes:Betterhelp - get 10% off with promo code ROADEnjoy this episode?

It feels more important than ever to re-think our role models. And adventure travel journalist, pilot, and deep water diver Kellee Edwards is someone who’s been paving a path on the road, in the air, and around the globe for years. It’s not just her passion to take herself to new heights that we’re inspired by though-- it’s the way she wants to bring everyone else with her.Resources From This Episode:Follow Kellee on Instagram: @kelleesetgoKellee is the host of Travel + Leisure’s new podcast, “Let’s Go Together”.

As a queer couple, Natasha Seitz and Beth Luby challenge the notion we hear often online from white, straight couples: that the road always feels safe and strangers always seem welcoming. Because the reality is that safety also equates to privilege, and it shows up in the ways you camp, where you travel to, and what you do when you get there. In this episode, we get to know Natasha and Beth and dig into the safety considerations they make often while traveling, how intersectionality comes into play, and how your gut and your head sometimes tell two different stories about what’s really going on.Resources From This Episode:Follow Natasha and Beth on Instagram: @seeingtheseitzListen to Underneath It All, the newest Ravel Media podcast, and subscribe!Join the On the Road, Our Way Facebook Group!Sponsor Websites & Codes:Manta Sleep - get 10% off with promo code ROADTravel + Leisure has a new podcast out, hosted by travel expert Kellee Edwards, called “Let’s Go Together”.

We didn't ask, but we bet if we had, traveler Denise Meeker would say that coming home to yourself isn't a one-time act. It's personal, on-going, and sometimes shows up in ways you don't expect. It also can include hard, internal work. But we're really thankful to get to hear her story of coming home through spending time on the road and in the outdoors to underline the importance of you telling yours.Resources From This Episode:Follow Denise Meeker on Instagram: @wayfaretowellnessDenise’s blog: Wayfare to WellnessMelanin and Mental HealthJoin the On the Road, Our Way Facebook Group!Sponsor Websites & Codes:Manta Sleep - get 10% off with promo code ROADBetterhelp - get 10% off with promo code ROADDannerEnjoy this episode?

Chef Manouschka Guerrier is known for a lot of things-- like dancing, acting, and her culinary skills on the reality TV show Private Chefs of Beverly Hills-- but being on the road is her newest adventure. From solo travel to RV fires and more, Manouschka learned a lot about herself through hitting the road in search of the kind of relationships you can build when you’re face to face.Resources From This Episode:Follow Manouschka Guerrier on Instagram: @single_servingWatch Manoushka’s recap of her road trip: Face Reality Find Chef Manouschka on YouTubeJoin the On the Road, Our Way Facebook Group!Sponsor Websites & Codes:Manta Sleep - get 10% off with promo code ROADDannerEnjoy this episode?
